TCM Holiday Card Blog Hop

Welcome to The Craft's Meow's Holiday Card Blog Hop. Today, the team is showcasing the many holiday-themed stamps that TCM offers through their online store. If you came from Lindsay's blog, then you're at the right spot. If not, you can check the list of participants on the TCM blog so you don't miss a thing :).

I have two cards for you. My first is classic vintage using my Christmas Angel stamp set. I've been inspired lately by a few shabby chic crafters and created this. The papers are Melissa Frances. I colored the angel with Copic markers and framed it using Spellbinders dies. The sentiment is from Vintage Ornaments, which I framed with Spellbinders Fancy Framed Tags Two. I sprinkled some Want2Scrap LeCreme pearls to add to the vintage feel of the card. I distressed all the edges and inked them.

My second card is more on the Clean and Graphic style using the Holiday Foundations set. The stockings were die cut using my Spellbinders' Sweet Folk Art dies. I used leftover scraps from my mass-produced Christmas card project a from few posts ago. I embellished the stocking with lace.

Your next stop is my friend Sharri, don't forget to stop by the  TCM blog for more info on prizes and more inspiration! Happy hopping!

Using up my stash

Here are some cards my girls and I made a few weeks ago to use up my stash. This first one was made by my daughter all by herself. I am pretty impressed. This looks so much better than the first cards I made. The papers are old October Afternoon. I can't remember what they're called. The sentiment is by Stampin' Up.

These two are made by me and use the same October Afternoon papers and SRM Stickers sentiments.

I found this little dragonfly embellishment in my stash and I don't know where I got it from, but it seems perfect here :).

Have a great Wednesday!

Angel Noel

Today's card was on the Want2Scrap blog a few days ago to highlight the Nestabling and Nestaboard that both coordinate with Spellbinders dies. I used the Nestaboard Fancy Tags Two and Nestabling Fancy Tags Two Silver Rhinestones to frame my sentiment. The angel and sentiment are from The Craft's Meow's Christmas Angel stamp set.

I love how detailed these Nestaboards are. I usually place a patterned paper on it (using the coordinating Spellbinders dies), but I decided to keep it without to match the Kraft card base. The papers are Melissa Frances.

I hope you were inspired to use these fantastic Want2Scrap Nestabling and Nestaboard products on your projects.

CFC #10 Sentimental

Hello, friends! It's Crafty Friends Challenge again and this time, Linda, our hostess, challenged us to focus our project on words/sentiments.

I made this clean and simple card for you using my Penny Black Madison Paper pad. The seam binding and twine are by Ribbon Carousel.

The sentiment is Thickers by American Crafts. I'm entering this to the Moxie Fab Challenge.

Please check out these ladies' blogs for more sentimental inspirations:

Christmas Blessings

I have a quick post today since it's a holiday in Croatia and we have lots of plans for the rest of the day. My card is for The Craft's Meow's November Sketch Challenge. Here is the sketch:

Here is my interpretation using the Christmas Angel stamp set. I left the angel not colored this time. I love the details that it looks fine even as is. I die cut it with a Spellbinders Classic Circle die.

 

The papers are Melissa Frances. I added the Want2Scrap bling for more flair. The sentiment is heat embossed with white on Kraft cardstock.

I hope you can join the TCM team for this month's sketch challenge. Make sure you check out the blog fore more samples using this sketch. Have a great day!
